SCENE> OUTSIDE THE COMPOUND WITH ROGI IN HIS HUGE SUIT,
PUTTING THE MORLOCKS IN THE WAY OF A BARRAGE OF FIRE.<Mav2099> ::flies up sending a pair of blasts at
the robot::heads up!
<Tactile> ::tries to dodge fire and kicks and punches at
the suit looking for a weakenss::
<Bombshell> Maybe we oughta try keeping it off balance!
::tries punching at the ground near Rogi::
<Mav2099> there is never a dull day with the morlocks
::dodges some blasts::
<Tripstar> ::tries to fly in and weaken one of its legs::
<Jaxion> ::dives behind and rock for cover and yells to
Bombshell:: So.. you said you wanted to talk about something?
<Static> ::Ports every once in a while as he tries to dodge
the blasts, porting near the head of the robot and trying to
drive one of his energy blasts into it::
<Priest> ::"knocks" on the complex door, trying
to get the morlocks inside and out of the line of fire::
<Bombshell> funny time to talk now isn't it..?
<Kali> ::Leaps into the air, dodging the blasts, blasting a
cloud of fire at Rogi's head.::
<Powerslam> ::stands and forms a few energy spheres,
sending them at the robot thingy::
<Tactile> ::touches the robot and sheds his older form and
takes the new form::
<Access> ::goes for its knee joint "slashing" at
it with his staff::
<Mav2099> ::circles back firing another blast at the ground
around the robots feet but away from the others::ACTION> TTHE SUIT TAKES THE BRUNT OF MOST ATTACKS, ITS
ARMOR HOLDING STRONG. WITH ONE STRONG KICK, TACTILE IS SENT
FLYING AWAY. STATIC IS TARGETED BY SMALLER LASER BLASTERS ON THE
SUIT, KEEPING HIM FROM STRIKING<Jaxion> Well.. ::ducks a blast:: Considering
later i might be dead! This is fine with me!
<Bombshell> Just want to know why you're helping... ::tries
to dig a big chunk of earth from the ground and fling it at
Rogi's head::
<Powerslam> ::sends the energy spheres at the suit's legs::
<Static> Shock..::Continues porting as he tries to dodge
the blasts, looking for any unprotected area he can strike at::
<Kali> ::Dives towards Rogi's head, a high heel aimed at
his forehead.::
<Mav2099> uhh our attacks don't seem to be working against
this thing ::dives avoiding fire::ACTION> THE CHUNK IS DESTROYED IN THE AIR BY NUMEROUS
BLASTS. KALI'S KICK IS DEFLECTED BY A FORCE FIELD PROTECTING
ROGI. THE OTHER ATTACKS BATTER THE SUITS ARMOR, DOING DAMAGE BUT
NOT YET ENOUGH TO TAKE IT DOWN.<Kali> ::Grumbles, blasting at the legs from the
air.::
<Jaxion> Well.. the girl with the wings is sorta a friend
of mine! And.. hey, I'm a nice guy! ::blinks, looking back and
seeing the rock he was behind has been vaporized:: ...shock...
<Priest> ::banging on the complex door here, throw me a
frickin bone man::
<Mav2099> maybe we should make a break for it? ::looks to
see where the entrance is::
<Bombshell> maybe fighting isn't a good idea right now...
we should just try to get pastit
<Powerslam> ::makes a face and sends some more energy
spheres at the robot's legs::
<Tripstar> ::tries to open door with Priest by burning
through it::
<Tactile> ::runs back up to Rogi and tries to slam his
fists down around one of Rogi's robot feet to cave the ground
in::
<Static> Wait..Bombshell, try for some of those smaller
cannons! If I can get an opening, I might be able to disable it,
with my energy blades.
<Jaxion> ...then YOU ask him to please step aside. ::turns
and blasts at Rogi, running around frantically::
<Mav2099> any ideas anyone? ::sends more blasts at the
robot::
<Bombshell> ::rushes towards Rogi:: I'll do my bestACTION> TWIN PROJECTILE ARE LAUNCHED OUT OF ROGI'S
BACK, EXPLODING BY PRIEST AND TRIPSTAR, THROWING THEM AWAY FROM
THE DOOR<Jaxion> ::blinks, seeing Bombshell run at Rogi::
I wasn't serious!!
<Tripstar> ugh! ::gets thrown back::
<Tripstar> Maybe we should get outta here...
<Bombshell> ::tries to jump and grab one of the cannons and
rip/pull it off::
<Access> ::continues to go for it's knee joints, trying to
cut it down::
<Tactile> ::tries to grab ahold of one of the robot's legs
and pull it out from under him::ACTION> BOMBSHELL IS HIT SIMALTANEOUSLY BY MULTIPLE
BLASTERS, KEEPING HER BACK. BY NOW ONE OF ROGI'S LEGS HAS BEEN
MELTED AND FUSED INTO SLAG AND IS MISSING AN ARM, BUT IS STILL
FIRING<Bombshell> ah! ::tries to shake them off as best
as she can and stay on her feet::
<Priest> ::shakes his head:: Have to stay goal-oriented
here. . .
<Powerslam> ::grimaces and forms five energy spheres at
full strength and sends them at the robot's head::
<Static> My bad, Bombshell. Bad plan, I
guess..Uhm..Hmm..::Ports a few times, then tries porting at the
robot from the side he's missing an arm on, trying to drive an
energy blade into the robot::
<Tactile> ::keeps trying to pull the unmelted leg out from
under the robot::
<Bombshell> Gotta be faster next time... ::runs towards
Rogi again this time trying to run in a random pattern before
jumping up and throwing a punch at one of the cannons::
<Priest> ::gets to his feet slowly and tries to sneak past
roborogi while he's busy with the others and take care of that
door::ACTION> THE ALREADY DAMAGED SUIT STARTS TO GO HAYWIRE
FROM THE BLADES, WEAPONS FIRING WILDY AND FUNCTIONING LIMBS
FLAILING AROUND. TACTILE IS THROWN BACK YET AGAIN AS THE HUGE
ROBOT SUIT GOES THROUGH SOME KIND OF SPASM WITH WEAPONS BLAZING
AND LOOKS ABOUT TO BLOW<Powerslam> ::hides behind Tactile::
<Tactile> ((Grrr....))::flies into a wall of the compound
and then falls down and pulls himself up looking at Rogi::{{I
think we should all try to um...get away!}} ::starts to run away
from Rogi::
<Mav2099> ::dodges the wild blasts::
<Static> Whoa! Take cover! ::Ports out of the way of the
haywire robot::ACTION> ROGI FALLS BACK FROM BOMBSHELL'S PUNCH AND
GETS READY TO BLOW<Bombshell> ohhh boy... ::tries quickly running
away from Rogi:: Get back!
<Jaxion> ::blinks:: Ohhh shock! Umm.. Bombshell! Get outta
there! ::dives for cover::
<Tripstar> ::tries to dodge::
<Mav2099> ::moves for cover::
<Powerslam> ::mutters and runs away from the robot:: The
only thing the hunk of slag's for is being a shield and he runs
away like a little kid
<Tactile> ::bends down, picks up a rock, and hurls it at
PS's head while still running::ACTION> THE SUIT GOES UP IN A FIERY EXPLOSION, ROGI
GOES SPEEDING OUT OF THE WRECKAGE. THE DOORS TO THE COMPOUND
OPENING FOR HIM AS HIS ZIPS INSIDE<Mav2099> ::vaporizes the rock with a small blast
frowning at tactile::
<Tactile> {{Keep the door open!}} ::hurls another rock to
try to get it between the doors::
<Priest> ::tries to stand in between the doors and wedge
them open::
<Tripstar> ::tries to get in door::
<Tactile> ::runs towards the door:: ACTION> THE ROCK BOUNCES OFF PRIEST'S HEAD AS HE HOLDS
THE DOORS OPEN<Mav2099> ::flies towards the door::
<Static> ::Watches Rogi exit the wreckage:: Did that guy
just..have a wheel attatched to the bottom of him? ::Shakes his
head and ports towards the door, running the rest of the way,
towards it::
<Priest> ::blinks:: ((I'm working with children. . .))
<Jaxion> ::scrambles to get to his feet and looks around:;
Everybody still.. have the majority of their body connected?
<Bombshell> ::walks towards door:: Didn't have time to
check
<Tactile> ::smiles slightly trying to hold it back as he
goes through the door::
<Powerslam> ::hurries after the unicycle crossed with a
midget::
<Jaxion> ::follows everybody inside, looking around::ACTION> ROGI HAS ALREADY DISAPPEARED INTO THE COMPOUND
SOMEWHERE<Tripstar> ::looks around compound::
<Mav2099> ::looks around::now where did that thing go?ACTION> INSIDE IS A CORRIDOR LEADING DEEPER INTO THE
COMPOUND, WHICH BRANCHES OFF IN VARIOUS DIRECTIONS<Powerslam> ::glances around inside the compound::
Where'd the walking sinker's mom get off to?
<Bombshell> great... just what they need to split a team
up..
<Static> ::Looks around, as he enters:: Okay..uhm..anyone
have any idea which way we have to go?
<Priest> Don't anyone suggest splitting up. . .
<Tripstar> Well, this is great.
<Mav2099> ::sees the corridors::
<Jaxion> We might not have to. ::looks at Bombshell:: That
glove of yours found this place, maybe it can find Predator?
<Tactile> ::shrugs and heads down one of the ways::
<Bombshell> Ned? Any sign of her?
<Jaxion> ::calls after Tactile:: Might want to stick with
us
<Ned> Hold on..
<Tactile> ::turns around::{{And why is that?}}
<Mav2099> ((hmm..a talking glove what else will they think
of?))
<Priest> ::shakes his head at tac:: ((That child. . .of
God. . .just isn't right))ACTION> A HOLOGRAPHIC PROJECTION OF THE COMPOUND COMES
UP, SPLITTING INTO A CROSS SECTION SHOWING ALL THE CORRIDORS AND
ROOMS<Jaxion> ::grins:: Cuz we have a map.
<Powerslam> ::looks at Priest then to Tac:: You don't like
him either?
<Tactile> ::turns and glarse at Priest::{{And you....I've
seen how you look at me. You think your all high and mighty.}}
::turns back to Jaxion::{{I guess I'll stay.}}
<Tripstar> Ah, there we go.
<Mav2099> ::watches the image::nifty!
<Static> Cool..What'd you do, Ned? Hack into the compound's
mainframe?
<Bombshell> All right... let's just find her and get out
<Ned> Something like that.
<Priest> ::looks at tac likes his mentally challenged most
of the time, heh, as he's stated numerous times:: I just think he
needs special attention sometimes. . .ACTION> ONE OF THE CORRIDORS IS HIGHLIGHT, LEADING TO
A LARGE ROOM OF SORTS<Ned> Predator's there.
<Bombshell> Let's do it then. The quicker the better...
something is really off about this place..
<Tripstar> Let's go there then.
<Mav2099> smart glove...::waits for the others before
proceeding::
<Powerslam> Like a sledgehammer to the side of his head?
::looks to Priest::
<Static> Alright..time to institute a jailbreak then, I
guess. ::Grins and cracks his knuckles::
<Jaxion> Alright. ::waves for Bombshell to go ahead:: You
got the glove so I guess you lead
<Priest> ::shakes his head at 'slam:: Ned, what about
security?
<Tactile> ::psi-grumbles::((I'll show you special
treatment..))
<Ned> Security.. is strangely not that much. Probably due
to the difficulty of ever finding this place.
<Bombshell> I'm not much of a leader... but okay atleast I
can block most of the shots
<Bombshell> ::goes ahead of the group::
<Tactile> ::walks up behind Bombshell::{{I'm good at that
too...}}
<Mav2099> ::follows behind bombshell::
<Jaxion> ::follows after Bombshell:: Well.. you don't have
to do that. Just meant your glove knows that way.
<Powerslam> ::looks at BS then to Tac:: Let the walking
sinker take all the damage
<Tripstar> ::follows here::
<Tripstar> <<er, her>>
<Tactile> ((Just ignore him....Ignore the ignorant...If he
has to make himself feel better...Well of course he does look at
him....But if the only way he can do that is talking about
me.....then just ignore him)) :keeps walking::
<Powerslam> ::follows everybody::ACTION> DOWN THE CORRIDORS, THE COMPUTER CONSOLES
PASSED AND OTHER GADGETS ARE NOTICED TO BE PRODUCTS OF
STARK-FUJIKAWA, ONLY TO THOSE WHO KEEP INFORMED ENOUGH TO
RECOGNIZE SUCH THOUGH<Priest> ::walks up alongside bombshell and
whispers:: I imagine you never thought you'd have to be a
babysitter when you joined our merry little band of mutants, did
you?
<Tripstar> ::looks around:: Lots of gadgets here...
<Bombshell> ::frowns a little:: babysitter?
<Mav2099> ::sees the equipment::hmmm
<Bombshell> I'm just trying to help you guys..
<Jaxion> SF gadgets more specifically. ::looks around,
still following Bombshell:: Figured this place would be Paradox
affiliated.
<Powerslam> ::glances around:: SF? ::frowns:: Still a
shocking corp... ((I hate to think it... poor wildgirl))
<Tripstar> ::to Jaxion:: Why's that?
<Priest> ::frowns also:: Never mind. . .
<Static> ::Follows the others:, looking at the equipment as
they walk:: SF, eh? Hmm..What's Stark-Fujikawa want with Predator
anyways..?
<Bombshell> Didn't she have some kind of healing power?
<Bombshell> Perhaps genetic research... the scary kind..
<Mav2099> damn corporations...::walks alongside tripstar::
<Jaxion> ::glances at Tripstar:: Paradox had Predator.. so
I just figured she'd be taken to a Paradox installation.
<Static> Yeah? So? ::Glances at Bombshell:: Wait..maybe
they're trying to artificially create a healing factor or
something? It's been done before, I think..ACTION> DOWN THE CORRIDOR A LITTLE MORE IS A WINDOW.
SHOWTUNE MUSIC CAN BE HEARD FROM THE OTHER SIDE.<Powerslam> Paradox and SF're working together? Or
is this all just stolen technology?
<Mav2099> ::shudders hearing the words genetic
research::brings back bad memories...
<Tripstar> Oh. I see. <<my character didn't/doesn't
know Genesis and stuff>>
<Jaxion> Heh ::glances back at powerslam:: people don't
steal from Stark Fujikawa
<Tactile> ::just looks around not 'saying' anything::
<Mav2099> anyone else hear that music? ::raises eyebrow::
<Powerslam> Then I shudder to think the first one was right
::grimaces::
<Priest> ::heads off in the direction of the music::
<Static> It's sad, really..::Frowns:: Stark Industries
originally stemmed from the efforts of a great man..to see it
turned into what it is now..::Shakes his head:: I bet Tony Stark
is rolling over in his grave..
<Jaxion> Might have just been a busines transaction. Wonder
what Paradox got out of the deal. ::stops by the window:: Shh..
::whispers:: this isn't the room Predator is supposed to be in,
is it?
<Bombshell> Any closer yet, Ned?
<Mav2099> ::heads towards the music::
<Powerslam> ::looks ahead and follows everybody::
<Ned> No.. down the hall more.ACTION> THOSE WHO LOOK IN THE WINDOW IS A STAGE, WITH
RAYTEN STANDING BEHIND A PODIUM AND A BUNCH OF ANIMATE SKELETONS
DOING SMOE KIND OF MOCK BROADWAY MUSICAL, WITH RAYTEN DIRECTING.<Jaxion> ::blinks and starts walking again::
..just keep walking.. keeeep walking..
<Powerslam> ::shudders and keeps walking, looking away from
it::
<Priest> ::blinks, keeps walking:: . . .
<Static> ::Ignites his energy blades as he walks:: I don't
suppose anyone would happen to have a stogie on the-..::Stops as
he glances in the window, momentarily, then keeps walking:: ...
<Mav2099> ::blinks and keeps walking::ooookay
<Bombshell> err
<Tactile> ::just walks along and glances inside the
window::((Things can't get much stranger...))
<Bombshell> ::moves faster:: This place is a madhouseACTION> RAYTEN CAN BE HEARD YELLING INSIDE AT THE
SKELETONS FOR MORE FEELING AND TO SING FROM THEIR GUTS<Jaxion> ::shudders::
<Powerslam> ::opens his mouth to say something then shuts
it:: ((She saved my life... have to be nice... for now))
<Ned> Next door to the right should be it.
<Mav2099> ::walks faster::this place is twisted
<Tripstar> This is too weird...
<Tactile> ::walks along at the same rate of speed but then
speedens slightly to keep up::
<Bombshell> great... ::places her ear next to the door::
<Bombshell> Any way we can find out what's inside for sure?
<Ned> Maybe opening the door.
<Bombshell> Ever hear of boobytraps, Ned?
<Powerslam> ::goes and opens the door... or attempts to::
<Bombshell> wait... let's try this way ::tries to punch
through the wall next to the door::
<Static> ::Under his breath:: What next, I wonder..singing
brains?
<Mav2099> ::waits to enter the door::((this was too easy))
<Ned> well you didn't specify that.ACTION> THE DOOR OPENS, AND THE WALL BREAKS IN. PIC
YOUR ENTRANCE<Bombshell> ::blinks and turns a little red:: or
the door might work..
<Powerslam> ::walks in, looking around then glances to BS::
Yes, it seems it did work
<Mav2099> ::walks into the hole in the wall::((now thats my
kinda girl!))
<Jaxion> ::snickers and walks through the hole in the
wall:: Just to make you feel better I'll use your entrance.
<Tripstar> ::goes through door::
<Bombshell> ::sighs:: thanks :;walks inside and looks
around::ACTION> INSIDE ARE LOTS OF MACHINES AND PREDATOR,
STRAPPED ON A LAB TABLE. WIDE AWAKE AND NOT LOOKING HAPPY<Mav2099> ::looks around::
<Predator> ::growls::
<Bombshell> ::walks over to the nearest machine:: See what
we have here..
<Powerslam> ::walks over to Preds:: You've gotta be on some
good stuff
<Priest> ::also heads in through the hole making it a
little larger in the process:: The door lacks the finess and
flare people in our line of work live off of
<Mav2099> ::inspects the machines::
<Jaxion> ::looks around:: Mostly.. surgical equipment.
<Predator> ::expression of intense concentration::
rrrrrhhhtook you long enough...
<Static> ::Shrugs and walks through the hole in the wall::
Whatever. So, who can figure out what these machines are for, so
that we don't accidently kill Predator, if we set her free or
something?
<Tripstar> ::looks at the machines:: Wow... ::sees
Predator:: Are you ok?
<Tactile> ::walks through the door and looks around then at
Preds::{{Oh hello.}}
<Bombshell> okay... let's just get her unhooked and leave
<Bombshell> ::looks for anything strange::
<Powerslam> Does this hurt? ::pokes a part of her that's
not hooked up to some odd machine::
<Jaxion> It doesn't look like she'son any kind of life
support.
<Predator> ::closes her eyes and breathes in sharply
through her nose:: YES!
<Mav2099> ::hovers glancing around the room for anyone else
that might be hiding in the room::this was too easy...
<Bombshell> no time for this ::tries to quickly free Pred::
<Rogi> ::zips into the room, skidding to a stop when he
sees them:: Ahh!!
<Bombshell> Static, check the hall for any incoming baddis
<Bombshell> ...or not..ACTION> PREDATOR IS FREED EASILY<Powerslam> Ahh ::smirks:: I'd think you're the
type to enjoy that... ::stops poking her::
<Predator> ::mumbles:: where'sthfraggindoctor?...oh
<Tactile> ::turns quickly::{{It's him!}} ::tries to tackle
Rogi::
<Mav2099> ::sees rogi::i knew it!
<Bombshell> ::tries to burst through the opposite wall of
Rogi:: Let's go guys!
<Predator> ::remains lying on the table, unable to move::
<Rogi> ::kicks himself into reverse and lets Tactile fall
on his face:: Waaaiit!!!
<Tactile> Ufh! ::pulls himself up and walks towards the
hole::
<Powerslam> ::looks at Rogi:: What?
<Mav2099> why should we wait?
<Priest> Whhhat!!?
<Jaxion> ::ducks flying rubble:: Bombshell! We can use the
doors this time! ::rubs his head when a chunk of wall hit him::
<Bombshell> they'd expect that
<Rogi> I give up! Don't hurt me!
<Bombshell> ::stops:: ... you... give up?
<Jaxion> Who? Him? ::points at Rogi:: He's 3 feet tall!
<Powerslam> Reverend... pick him up so he can't go anywhere
<Predator> suuuuure...won'thurtya... just come'lilbit
closer.... ::glares::
<Mav2099> i don't trust him...::eyes rogi::
<Rogi> You can't take her yet! She die if you take!!
<Powerslam> Why will she die?
<Bombshell> ::grabs Rogi and picks him up:: Are you saying
it's a trap?
<Tripstar> ::looks at Rogi:: What are you talking about?
<Rogi> She die if you take! Waahhh!! ::blinks at
Bombshell:: No trap! Not finished!
<Mav2099> the only one dying here is going to be you if you
don't explain
<Static> ::Frowns:: What do you mean not finished?
<Predator> ::growls:: jus'getmeouttahere. won'tdie...
<Rogi> She not finished! Look at her! She no move!
<Bombshell> finished... with what? And how can she get
better?
<Predator> ::closes her eyes:: out. now!
<Static> ::Grits his teeth:: Stuff the crytpic crap and
tell us exactly what the problem is, you little..
<Mav2099> he is stalling...i bet he is keeping us here till
his backup gets here
<Bombshell> Preds.... just shush for right now and we'll
get you our asap, okay? ::tries to give Predator her most
confident smile::
<Rogi> No move! No move! ::points at Predator:: She's not
activated yet!
<Predator> activatethis!
<Powerslam> Not activated?
<Bombshell> ::growls at Rogi:: Activated? She's not a
machine!
<Rogi> Yes! Yes she is!
<Predator> ::making a sincere attempt at beating her head
against the table... unfortunately can't::
<Ned> I think I get what he means now.
<Powerslam> ::blinks:: She's... a machine
<Powerslam> ?
<Tactile> ::looks questioningly at Rogi and
Predatpr::{{Wha..?}}
<Tripstar> What?!
<Bombshell> ::drops Rogi:: You're going nuts too?
<Rogi> Wah! ::falls on his back::
<Predator> wha'th'ellgoin'on? ::faintly dizzy look from
overexertion::
<Ned> They took Predator's skeletal system.
<Bombshell> someone calm her down... Ned, what's the
situation and how do we make it better?
<Bombshell> ::blinks:: what.. how is she still alive...?
<Predator> skel'ton? ::blinks:: ...
<Bombshell> That is the... sickest thing I've ever heard..
<Powerslam> ::shudders::
<Mav2099> skeletal system...removed? ::cringes::
<Predator> but... i can feel...hurts... ::eyes narrow::
lying!
<Ned> It was replaced with an adamantium replication of
one. Which.. from what I understand, hasn't been activated so its
not working with the rest of her. Which is why she can't move.
<Bombshell> so let's get it activated then.
<Tactile> ::looks around::{{Could they of been helping her
to maybe make her stronger and then use her for there own
purposes...wouldn't really be helping but you know? Like maybe
they were covering it in Adamntanium}}
<Predator> adamantium? ::dazed look::
<Tactile> ::looks over at Ned::{{Or that...}}
<Bombshell> ::looks around the room:: Is there a machine
that can start it?
<Mav2099> alright..activate her you little...
<Static> ::Groans:: Let me guess..and her other skeleton is
being used for some sort of sick musical? ::Shakes his head and
glances at Rogi:: How do you activate it?
<Predator> ((well ain't that ironic?)) ::stares at the
ceiling::
<Rogi> Yes! Yes! Put her back down! Machine will make work!
<Powerslam> ::eyes Rogi:: Just because she's slowing us
down, do it or you fry
<Jaxion> ::still looking at all the equipment around::
Think he's right.. looks like its using nanotechnology, but the
nannites aren't activated.
<Mav2099> ::shoves rogi::activate it already
<Predator> screw th'nannites. findsomeoneelse.
don'ttrustim...
<Bombshell> ::still looking around for something that will
activate it:: Hold tight
<Static> ::Shrugs slightly:: I don't like it,
but..wait..Jaxion..you seem to know about these machines..can you
maybe figure out how to do it?
<Bombshell> Ned, I need some help
<Jaxion> Yeah I can.. not that hard to figure out. Just
need to hook her back up.
<Predator> ::queasy look, closes her eyes at another surge
of pain::
<Bombshell> Powerslam... can you help hook her back up?
<Powerslam> ::looks to BS:: I don't know how
<Bombshell> Mav, keep Rogi here and watch to make sure he
doesn't call for help, Static keep an eye out for any other
people on their way here
<Ned> Problem.. Problem
<Mav2099> ::whispers to tripstar::i don't like this..
<Bombshell> k, I'll try to help
<Static> Gotcha. ::Turns and heads into the hallway,
leaning against the wall, outside the door::ACTION> THE ENTIRE COMPOUND SHAKES VIOLENTLY,
EXPLOSIONS CAN BE HEARD OUTSIDE<Ned> Problem!

<Bombshell> ::sighs:: oh don't say that... not now Ned
::tries to rehook Preds::
<Powerslam> ::uses the table to keep himself onbalance::
What was that?
<Predator> yeah... ::winces:: problem...
<Jaxion> Shock! ::braces himslef against the wall:: What's
going on??
<Bombshell> do we ever get GOOD luck?
<Mav2099> ::feels the explosions and holds onto rogi:;your
not going nowhere
<Tripstar> Uh-oh...
<Ned> Aircraft outside. Lots of them. From Paradox, i
beliebe. Their trying to destroy the compound.
<Predator> problem...pro'lem...pr...::eyes drift shut, then
she snaps out of it, opening her eyes again::
<Bombshell> We have to work fast then
<Bombshell> ::keeps rehooking Preds up:: Think this is
okay..
ACTION> THE COMPOUND CONTINUES TO SHAKE AND THE POWER GOES
OUT.
<Bombshell> Jaxion... hurry and get things running... NO
<Tripstar> That can't be good!
<Powerslam> OOh... spooky
<Predator> don'feelsogood...
<Jaxion> No! ::smacks a piece of equipment:: It's all
useless now!
<Bombshell> please let there be a back up..
<Static> ::Groans:: Oh terrific..why do I have a very bad
feeling about this..::Looks around at the sounds of the
explosions and looks back in the room:: No offense, but can you
guys hurry it up? ::Sees the power go out:: Oh shock.
<Powerslam> Can't the talking wrist thingy do it?
<Rogi> Gonnadiegonnadiegonnadie!!
<Bombshell> we have power... STatic! Get back in here...
Tactile, Tripstar watch out for bad guys
<Bombshell> Mav, shut him up.
<Ned> I don't have enough power for this!
<Mav2099> :;smacks rogi::shut up
<Bombshell> Not permanetely
<Bombshell> Static does.
<Bombshell> ((I hope))
<Predator> ...reeeeallydon'feelsogood..
<Tripstar> Will do... ::looks outside for baddies::
<Jaxion> Rogi> Ow! They gonna kill us! Must go now!
Another way!
<Powerslam> Leader boy does? ::quirks an eyebrow::
<Static> ::Heads back into the room:: Shock shock
shock..this sucks..::Glances at Bombshell:: What do you need me
for?
<Bombshell> Electricity... if we can rewire this somehow he
can give it enough juice to keep it running long enough to fix
her up
<Bombshell> we can get out of here then.
<Jaxion> ::looks around:: This ain't gonna shockin' work!
::stumbles from another explosion:: This whole place is coming
down!
<Bombshell> So move it people
<Ned> Lily, I don't think Static can do this.
<Predator> ::opens her eyes:: nannites... run on
ectri....'lectric power..? ::bleary look::
<Bombshell> Jaxion... get ready to get this thing
running... you can help too Ned...
<Static> ::Shakes his head:: Forget it. It won't work. My
blades are made up of neural energy. Chances are it'd just fuse
the circuits in the machinery. I say we grab Predator and get out
of here. We can find someway to activate Predator when we're
clear.
<Powerslam> What, you need energy?
<Bombshell> ::looks at PS:: Yes!
